WITH THE KING RANCH EDITION

Your vehicle is equipped with seating
covered in premium, top-grain leather
which is extremely durable, but still
requires special care and maintenance in
order to preserve longevity and comfort.

Regular cleaning and conditioning will
maintain the appearance of the leather.

Cleaning

For dirt, use a vacuum cleaner then use a
clean, damp cloth or soft brush.

For routine cleaning, wipe the surface with
a soft, damp cloth. For more thorough
cleaning, wipe the surface with a mild soap
and water solution.

Clean spills as quickly as possible.

Test any cleaner or stain remover on
an inconspicuous part of the leather as
cleaners may darken the leather.

Do not spill coffee, ketchup, mustard,
orange juice or oil-based products on
the leather as they may permanently
stain the leather.

Do not use household cleaning
products, alcohol solutions, solvents
or cleaners intended for rubber, vinyl
or plastics.

Scratches

Natural Markings - Because the leather in
the seat comes from genuine steer hides,
there will be evidence of naturally
occurring markings, such as small scars.
These markings give character to the
seating covers and considered to be proof
of a genuine leather product.

In order to lessen the appearance of
certain scratches and other wear marks,
apply conditioner on the affected area
following the same instructions as in the
Conditioning section.

Conditioning

Bottles of King Ranch Leather Conditioner
are available at the King Ranch Saddle
Shop. Visit the website at
www.krsaddleshop.com, or telephone (in
the United States) 1–800–282–KING
(5464). If you are unable to obtain King
Ranch Leather Conditioner, use another
premium leather conditioner.

Clean the surfaces using the steps
outlined in the Cleaning section.

Make sure the leather is dry then apply
a nickel-sized amount of conditioner
to a clean, dry cloth.

Rub the conditioner into the leather
until it disappears. Allow the
conditioner to dry, then repeat the
process for the entire interior. If a film
appears, wipe it off with a dry, clean
cloth.

REPAIRING MINOR PAINT
DAMAGE

Your authorized dealer has touch-up paint
to match your vehicle’s color. Take your
color code (printed on a sticker in the
driver’s door jamb) to your authorized
dealer to ensure you get the correct color.

Remove particles such as bird
droppings, tree sap, insect deposits, tar
spots, road salt and industrial fallout
before repairing paint chips.

Always read the instructions before
using the products.
